On the face of it we have a reasonable squad that should be competitive in games however once again I sense that it’s all about money, it isn’t we have produced successful teams with a weaker squad and a lot less money. It is currently more to do with coaching and attitude both of which we lack.

On Coach - From a head coach perspective, there`s not a great deal out there that would improve us, we have a good coaching set up that all want to do there best for Wakefield Trinity

Wrapped up.

I'd be a bit gutted if Westerman left tbh. He's playing the best rugby i've seen from him for years and he's still got another two good seasons in him.

So much for making the decision if necessary, this suggests that threshold will never arrive.

MC dodged that one quite well I thought. He did say that players and coaches have full support.

Bit worrying JM asked "did we really think we would beat Saints"? With that mindset how do you deliver a team talk as a coach?

Homme vaste gave a good summary. MC was asked about the acadamy for next season. Apparently decision has been put back a couple of weeks. There are 5 clubs for 2 places.

Can we just take a look at Barnsley FC and their Billionaire but tight a$$e owner who employs Moneyball tactics and after avoiding the drop to Div 1 last year they are now in the Championship playoffs.

Key differences was not necessarily by buying players from unknown clubs for £125000 because they had good stats on paper, but the appointment of their new manager has transformed the team.

Remarkable turn around.

That's because it is about money.
Same as every other business.

If it’s about money how do reconcile our performances with those of Salford who have no big money backer, low season ticket sales and rent their ground.

No, it’s partly about money. A poor manager will not get the best possible results whatever the resources they have, that’s the same in any business.

Thanks for the updates HV.

It is but it`s not all about money as Scarlett points out, I think if you can be smart with the money that you do have then that goes a long way.

If it was all about money, Warrington would have been SL champions for the last 5/6 years, as it turns out they haven't won it once.

If it was all about Money, Salford would never have been to Old Trafford and Wembley for 2 seasons on the bounce, Cas would never have been in sight of Old Trafford or a league leaders shield.

Which is all very noble but if we walk away then we will get nothing and the Belle Vue refurb doesn’t happen. Sadly Yorkcourt know that and have us over a barrel. They will offer the bare minimum needed to get it passed through planning whether we agree or not.

Spot on.

Good minute taking by the way.
